Airflow Tile

Airflow Tile is a type of Tile and can be used to enclose rooms and support buildings. Unlike normal Tiles, gases can still pass through Airflow Tiles, at the cost of a small decor penalty in an immediate vicinity.

Airflow Tiles are essential to shelters as they help distribute gasses around the base. Gasses will easily pass through this block in any direction, while acting as a solid block for any and all liquids and items. The gas flow still can be blocked with tiles, blocks or liquids that directly obstruct this tile.

Tips

 * Airflow tiles allow sunlight to pass through them with no loss of intensity, but block all other forms of light.
 * Airflow tiles block decor.
 * Airflow tiles do NOT prevent loss of gasses contained inside them when placed over exposed space in the Space Biome. Unlike mesh tiles and Pneumatic Doors.
 * If gas inside Airflow Tile condenses into a liquid or item, it will be pushed into closest open tile (in clock-wise direction starting from top-left tile)
 * Airflow Tile can temporarily contain liquids if gas inside condenses.
 * If there was enough material to form natural tile it will be created right over the Airflow Tile, blocking it.
 * If a liquid pipe containing liquid is deconstructed inside an airflow tile, the liquid from the pipe will be placed inside the airflow tile. This also "bridges" the airflow tile, allowing fluid from one side to to flow through it as if the tile were not even present.  If the airflow tile was used to hold an infinite pressure liquid tank, this can cause a sudden "explosion" of fluid from the now bridged airflow tile.
 * Airflow tiles can hold infinite pressure of liquids without breaking, which makes them perfect for building large liquid tanks or liquid compressors. Manual Airlocks and Mechanized Airlocks also do not get damaged by pressure in addition to not letting gas through, and can be used instead of airflow tiles for such builds.
 * Can act as insulation tile when "filled" with a Vacuum.
 * Airflow tiles displace any gas inside it when loading a colony.
 * Airflow tiles can be placed underneath vertical wind tunnel to prevent pressure build up.

Bugs

 * Liquids may become invisible on top of an airflow tile.
